Recently, people in the vicinity of my home have been coughing non-stop, and this respiratory infection problem is very serious in winter. This time, I will share the delicacy of using kumquat to nourish the lungs, and drink it twice a week to clear the heat and moisten the lungs. Kumquat is a fruit that has the effect of moistening the lungs and dissolving phlegm, and has a good effect on relieving symptoms such as cough and phlegm.
First of all, kumquat is rich in components such as vitamin C and pectin, which have a good antioxidant effect and can effectively protect the lungs from free radical damage, thus keeping the lungs healthy. At the same time, kumquat also contains some natural anti-inflammatory substances, which can effectively relieve symptoms such as cough and phlegm, and also has a certain auxiliary effect on bronchitis, asthma and other diseases.
Secondly, kumquat also has a good effect of moistening the lungs and reducing phlegm. Ingredients such as pectin in kumquat can effectively dilute phlegm and make it easier to excrete from the body, thereby relieving symptoms such as excessive phlegm and cough. At the same time, kumquat also contains some substances with antitussive effects, which can effectively relieve cough symptoms. In addition, kumquats can also promote blood circulation and speed up metabolism, which helps to flush out toxins and waste products from the body, further maintaining the health of the lungs.
Finally, in order to better exert the effect of kumquat on moistening the lungs and reducing phlegm, kumquat can be eaten together with other ingredients that have the effect of moistening the lungs and reducing phlegm, such as pears, loquats, etc. In addition, it is also necessary to pay attention to moderate consumption when eating kumquat to avoid adverse reactions such as diarrhea caused by excessive consumption. This time I shared the practice of boiling kumquat into syrup, soaking in water and drinking it directly or smearing bread, moistening the lungs, relieving cough and phlegm, if you need it, collect it!
